On the fact that the 'Aqiqah is general and has no conditions.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : ... by the fact that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he spoke about the 'Aqiqah in more than one authentic hadith, was general and did not set a condition, as in his saying (peace be upon him): Sunan an-Nasa'i 4218Hasan (Darussalam), and here comes the like of His saying (Glorified and Exalted is He): [Al-Ma'idah 5:101].
If I were in your place, I would not have given you this tape; do you know why? Because he took it with his left hand; are you awake? He gave it to you with his left hand [The Shaykh : He is laughing! ] You must pay attention.
Another questioner : The al-Haddad group joke with each other! [Everyone laughs], or he says to you: You are keeping me busy, O Shaykh.
Another questioner : By Allah,The Shaykh : An engineer al-Haddad, how is his design? I mean, an engineer's design! ... - .
The questioner : Our Shaykh, regarding ... Our Shaykh, Ibn Hazm does not say by analogy, but he says by imposing the conditions of the Udhiyah on the 'Aqiqah, the conditions of the Udhiyah. But from the linguistic side, he says that the Arabs say that the word "sheep"Sunan an-Nasa'i 4218Hasan (Darussalam); the word "sheep" is not used except for goats or sheep when they reach the age of 'Aqiqah, the age of Udhiyah; so how do we respond to this?
The Shaykh : This is from the Arabic side; we do not forget our origin and that we are non-Arabs and milk-drinkers, so we do not go ahead of the Arab. But this is one thing, and the fact that it should not be lame, or broken-hoofed, or one-eyed; there is no evidence for any of that.
The questioner : Yes, I do.
For a boy, two sheep, and or a girl, one sheep
عن الغلام شاتان ، وعن الجارية شاة واحدةO you who have believed, do not ask about things which, if they are shown to you, will distress you
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آَمَنُوا لَا تَسْأَلُوا عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ إِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْIf I were in your place, I would not have given you this tape; do you know why? Because he took it with his left hand; are you awake? He gave it to you with his left hand [The Shaykh : He is laughing! ] You must pay attention.
